#37 YOUR VOICE
What a wonderful day
when I sat in your church.
I knew I had found,
What I had long searched.

The answers I longed for
had come from your voice.
As you preached God's word,
I started to rejoice.

What a glorious blessing
The Lord gave to me.
When He sent me your way,
and you helped me to see.

You see Pastor
we had met once before.
As you were comforting my parents,
outside a hospital door.

In that hospital
my nana lay in a room.
Waiting with patience
For the Lord to take her home.

Home to a place
far better than here.
Home to the Lord,
and I knew He was near.

I sat with her
on that very day.
I knew she was leaving,
so I started to pray.

Please Lord, I said
don't take her from me.
I needed her more,
than He did you see.

Or so I thought
and I was wrong.
He was coming for her,
It wouldn't be long.

Dear Pastor
I heard what you said.
As you spoke with my parents,
but I heard with my head.

My heart was not listening
to you on that day.
I was so wrapped up,
in needing her to stay.

Nana did leave us
the very next day.
The angels came down,
and carried her away.

And as the days passed
I pondered your words.
I wasn't listening that day,
but on this day I heard.

The Lord had it planned
when He sent me your way.
And I knew what that plan was,
on that precious day.

He needed me to hear you
and to listen this time.
As you spoke of God's Word,
and this day I did mind.

And as you spoke
on that very day.
I felt the Lord with me,
I found the right way.

I need Him with me
every day of my life.
I can't go this alone,
things wouldn't be right.

I thank God for you
every day when I pray.
I thank Him and praise Him,
for sending me your way.

He knew what I needed
and what I needed was Christ.
and I now know with that,
comes everlasting life.

"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."
--Majjhima Nikaya

"Let go of your attachment to being right, and suddenly your mind is more open. You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by your own judgment."
--Ralph Marston
